Q-Tip Is Showcasing His Personal Art Collection.

This is not a drill. According to The Source, Q-Tip will be showcasing his personal art collection — which includes work from Harmony Korine, William Villalongo and Fab 5 Freddy — at auction house Bonhams New York.

“It is a privilege to have the opportunity to showcase and recognize some of the most talented artists that have inspired me personally and professionally,” Tip stated. “This would not have been possible were it not for Bonhams’ generosity and commitment in sharing my collection to the public. My hope is that this exhibition will encourage visitors to learn something new, be inspired, and discover the brilliance of some of these incredible emerging artists.”

You can catch the exhibit for $Free.99 from September 20 through October 4.
